Five injured as 5.9 magnitude quake hits Iran - Punch Newspapers

A 5.9-magnitude earthquake Sunday hit Iran’s southwestern Bushehr province, which houses a nuclear power plant, injuring five people but causing no major damage, state media said.

The 10-kilometre deep quake hit 27 kilometres northwest of the port city of Genaveh at 11:11 am local time and was felt in nearby provinces, Iran’s seismological agency said. State news agency IRNA reported that the quake and several aftershocks caused power blackouts and cut phone lines nearby but caused “no damage” at the Bushehr nuclear complex about 100 kilometres away.

“The minor damage to Genaveh’s water, electricity, telecommunication and gas infrastructure has been repaired,” the head of the province’s crisis management told IRNA.
